OOOHHH!!!
That was cool!
Tre cool!
Super cool!
DAS UBER-COOL!

Easily one of the best animations I've seen, even without stop-motion
animation.  Actually, probably even better without it!  It has an 'anime' feel
to it, in how the movement is suggested rather than shown.  Stop-motion always
seems clunky and choppy to me, while what you've done here, while simplier, is
much more believeable.

criticism:
1. the sword 'swipes' could be just a hair longer on screen..
2. the spell (i think its a spell) that garadaine uses at the end looks a
little cut-out. i think using a gaussian blur with a low radius could help make
it look more believable.

but that's it. the animation is tre-cool (see above) the wording is also cool.
you know, if you keep getting better at this, you're going to have to make an
*animated* story chapter!  i know it will be huge and totally destroy your
bandwidth usage, but whoa would it be AWESOME!  like a fifteen minute
mini-epic..

once again,
you've out done yourself!

(...) Wow! Thanks! I didn't expect as much enthusiasm. I guess I'm just being overly-critical, or you're just being too nice ;) I do agree with your opinion on stop motion animation, though it's a lot harder to do post-production animation, while (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.castle)

I say slightly animated because I didn't use stop motion. What little animation I did to my minifigs was done post-production in Photoshop and Flash.
